New York, April 15, 2020鈥擴.S. insurers are assisting disaster victims after dozens of deadly tornadoes tore across multiple southern states, according to the 黑料不打烊 Information Institute (Triple-I).
Property damage caused by tornadoes is covered under听, renters, and听听policies, and under the optional comprehensive portion of an听听policy. Nearly 80 percent of U.S. drivers opt to purchase comprehensive coverage.
While COVID-19 is causing changes in some business practices, the nation鈥檚 insurers are open and helping customers who sustained tornado-related damage. Most of the fatalities from the severe weather occurred in Mississippi, South Carolina, and Georgia on Sunday, April 12, and Monday, April 13.
The Triple-I has these recommendations when property damage occurs:
